B Correct answer
Explanation

The pattern is: (term x 2) + 211 gives the next term. Applying this: 513 x 2 + 211 = 1237, not 737. The term 737 breaks the pattern. All other terms follow the rule correctly: 737 x 2 + 211 = 1685 (not 1179), but continuing the corrected sequence shows 737 is the wrong term.
